Subject: Proposal For Search Query Privacy Working Group/Consortium


Dave,

I'm proposing the creation of a high-level working group/consortium
to address fundamental aspects of the technology and policy issues
surrounding search query privacy and related important topics.

Quoting from the proposal:

   "Participation by all stakeholders would be invited.
    Representatives of the major search engine firms and concerned
    government agencies, outside technologists and other persons
    involved in privacy and search issues, and other entities as
    appropriate would all play important roles."

For the detailed discussion, please see:

Thanks as always.
